After being defeated for the first time since it’s release, Halo 3 has bounced back to reclaim the #1 spot on Xbox LIVE. Major Nelson has posted the Xbox LIVE stats for last week, and it appears that Master Chief wasn’t about to stay at the #2 spot for long. It will be interesting to see if Call of Duty 4 simply had a lucky week or if it will fight back to regain the crown. What say you?

Halo just has more diverse gameplay and more wide-open maps.
COD4 needs a serious injection of something new. A patch doesn’t cut the mustard.
I wonder how things will shake up with Battlefield: Bad Company and Frontline coming up??

Personally, I think the biggest reason it’s caught on as well as it has is because it has a lobby system. I think we could be talking about Halo 3, COD4 and TF2 right now, if only Valve had been smart enough to implement a lobby system.
